\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>It was a dreich morning when two pupils from S4 at Dalry School and their teacher, Mrs Roslyn Henry set out for Carlingwark House, Castle Douglas. They quickly got the programme started as the residents had come down in force ready for the entertainment. All thoughts of pouring rain were soon forgotten as James Wallace took the audience on the\u2019 Road to the Isles\u2019, followed by a trip to the \u2018Banks of\u00a0 Inverurie\u2019 , accompanied by soft singing and foot tapping.<\/p>\n

Next up was Rory Newbery who delighted the audience with a Bach \u2018 Prelude\u2019 played on piano. James then took up his fiddle and played a selection of well-known Scottish tunes including the \u2018Skye Boat Song\u2019. Rory once more played piano \u2013 this time \u2018Fur Elise\u2019 by Beethoven. He has been working on this piece for his music exam which is in February.<\/p>\n

James then returned to singing. Three songs this time- \u2018Eriskay Love Lilt\u2019, \u2018Will Ye No Come Back Again\u2019 and the vibrant \u2018The Tartan\u2019 which had everyone joining in.\u00a0 Returning to his violin, he played one last piece,\u2019Over the Rainbow\u2019, which he too is working on for his National 5 exam in February.\u00a0 Finally they\u00a0 played a few requests from the audience before concluding with Auld Lang Syne, featuring James singing accompanied by Rory on piano.<\/p>\n

After the concert, there was a lovely vote of thanks from Mrs Margaret Neil and welcome cup of coffee. Both the entertainers and entertained felt the morning had been a wonderful opportunity for young and the not so young to come together for the love and joy of music.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
